Arson/Insurance Fraud
Success story #1:
“We were investigating a residential house fire and quickly developed a suspect. The house had been burglarized one week prior to the house fire.
The suspect was brought in for an interview. Of course, he denied everything and anything to do with the house burglary and fire. We then ran the suspect thru Leadsonline and found that he had pawned over 25 items the same day that the house was burglarized. Of course, the items were the same description as the ones reported stolen by the homeowner (dvd player, playstation, dvds etc…).
When the suspect was confronted with the indisputable evidence, he confessed to the burglary and arson of the house.
Thanks to leads online, TDC has another customer.”
Success Story #2:
We were interviewing a vehicle owner in regards to his vehicle being reported stolen and burned. The owner provided a long list of valuable contents including amps, stereo, speakers etc. The owner even provided us with photos of the property in the vehicle.
We ran his name thru Leadsonline and saw the same descriptions of items were pawned by him one day prior to his vehicle being 'stolen and burned.' When confronted with the evidence, he subsequently confessed to insurance fraud and arson of a motor vehicle.
